Now, scrapped FNG corridor to just link Noida and Ghaziabad

[sendtomanish]

NOIDA: Amid reports of Haryana government scrapping the Faridabad-Noida-Ghaziabad (FNG) corridor project, the Noida Authority has maintained that, since the project is a part of its Master Plan 2021, the work between Noida and Ghaziabad will be completed for sure. The Authority claims it has already completed 50% of its share of the project.

The project was floated in 1993 to connect Faridabad-Noida-Ghaziabad but was scrapped by the Haryana government in 1998 because it found it "unfeasible." As per the initial plan, the corridor was to be 56km long and was to connect NH-24 near Ghaziabad and NH-2 (Delhi-Agra). Around 16km of the corridor falls under the jurisdiction of Noida Authority and work on 8km linking Noida and Ghaziabad is complete.

This link road begins at Chijarsi village near NH-24 and passes through sectors 142, 143B and 167,168 along the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway to end at Assdullapur village near sector 168. The Authority has already spent Rs 30 crore on the project.

"The NCR Planning board had been informed about the FNG corridor and we included it in our Master Plan when Haryana government planned to scrap it," said an Authority official. "Currently, the congested NH-24 is the only link road between Noida and Ghaziabad. Considering that vehicular movement along this route is expected to increase several-fold due to residential and commercial development along the Expressway and in Ghaziabad, this part of the FNG corridor will provide smooth travel between the two cities," he added.

Sources said that the remaining 50% work is stuck because some part of the land along the stretch is yet to be acquired while some is heavily encroached upon.

We have known for long that FNG expressway is scrapped. There is a topic also for the same in forum:

But, recently, in Faridabad Master Plan 2031, connectivity to NOIDA has been approved by way of 2 bridges. Please see:

Manish, I totally agree that we should push local authorities -HUDA Administrator,DC faridabad, MP,MLA, CA-HUDA and CM for putting plan into implementation.
